FINISHED PRODUCT OF THE BREWERS ART
(Faye Keys / Bill Pogue)
Bobby Barnett - 1968
Success I've always had a way of winning
In town affairs I took an active part
I drank to toast my friend at the beginning
Now I'm the finished product of the brewers art
A bottle and a glass were my own making
As I watched the world I built falling apart
Now friends that shook my hand laugh at my hands shaking
Now I'm the finished product of the brewers art
(Instrumental Break)
Slowly I drank my way back down the ladder
Just a fool that from his money soon did part
Lost everything in life that ever mattered
Now I'm the finished product of the brewers art
A bottle and a glass were my own making
As I watched the world I built falling apart
Now friends that shook my hand laugh at my hands shaking
Now I'm the finished product of the brewers art
Yes, I'm the finished product of the brewers art
